In a large skillet, cook beef, onion, and garlic over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in salsa, beans, enchilada sauce, chilies, taco seasoning, and pepper; heat through.
Spread 1 cup meat mixture in a greased 9×13 baking pan.
Layer with 2 tortillas,a third of the meat mixture,and 1 cup of cheese.
Repeat layers. Top with remaining tortillas and meat mixture. The pan will be FULL.
Cover and bake at 375 for 30 minutes.
Uncover; sprinkle with remaining cheese and top with tortilla chips. Bake 10-15 minutes more or until cheese is melted. Let stand 10 minutes before serving..Garnish with sour cream, olives, guacamole, and tomatoes if desired. Yield: 12 servings.
I only used Sour Cream to eat with it and it was really good.
